The evening terrace delivers the view of the summer’s end. You, with sunglasses and tea, add an hour to the twilight breeze. Wicker and linen abide with sandals upraised on the stone slate of the fountain…. A bird is nesting in the pergola. A willow leans in to the shade and weeps. The complacent canicule curbed and the days grow shorter with the laughter of children neatly subsiding….
Welcome to ARTPIL’s .060th edition of Prescriptions. Here is our look back on the week in the arts.
Anselm Kiefer
Memory Palace
Memory Palace is a major group exhibition extending across White Cube’s London galleries featuring more than 90 works by over 40 artists, including Cerith Wyn Evans, Robert Irwin, Andreas Gursky, Etel Adnan, Georg Baselitz, Anselm Kiefer, and others, inspiring reflections on the forms and themes of memory. On view through September 15, 2018 at White Cube.
The List / UNITED
The List
The List, complied by UNITED and propagated by artist Banu Cennetoglu, traces the deaths of over 34,000 refugees, asylum seekers and migrants who lost their lives around the borders of Europe since 1993. Its installation twice vandalized and torn down at Liverpool Biennial recently, we present it here in its entirety.
Dennis Hlynsky
Tracing the Ephemeral / Dennis Hlynsky
Depicting the quality that collective nouns describe, the work in this show represents a study of the fleeting gestural perambulations of creatures who thrive in large numbers. –Dennis Hlynsky. At Diehl Gallery through September 2, 2018.
Wifredo Lam
Nouveau Nouveau Monde / Wifredo Lam
Internationally recognized as one of the pioneers of modernism, this exhibit of Wifredo Lam includes an important group of major paintings ranging from rarely seen masterpieces from his six-decade career. At Galerie Gmurzynska through September 30, 2018.
Leticia Ramos
A Grande Onda / Leticia Ramos
With Leticia Ramos, formal studies about photographic material and construction of images without any scenography display cohabit: the goal being less scenography and more photographic paper surfaces. Through September 8, 2018 at Galeria Filomena Soares.
Ulrike Koenigshofer
20 Propositions
As parts to one whole, this group exhibition is considered as an unfinished series of experiments, speculations, and encounters strung together with notions of the temporary and the ephemeral are prioritized. On exhibit through September 23, 2018 at Salzburger Kunstverein.
